Growth, increased surplus ratio and Investment Grade rating characterised 2018
Strong growth characterised 2018. The transaction volume amounted to SEK 25 billion, with acquisitions being conducted in Copenhagen and Oslo in particular. Complementary acquisitions were conducted in major regional Swedish cities, such as Malmö, Lund, Linköping, Norrköping, Uppsala and Gävle.
On the balance sheet date, the total property value was SEK 72 billion, comprising a property portfolio of 37,337 apartments. For existing property stocks, investments have been made in sustainability, including in solar cells, energy-optimising measures and value- enhancing renovations in some 1,000 apartments.
Customer experience and customer satisfaction guide our day-to-day management efforts and our focus on sustainable investments. Growth, sustainable investments, local property management and closeness to our customers, increased our surplus ratio by 4.5 percen-tage points over the past year.
In the fourth quarter of 2018, Heimstaden Bostad secured an Investment Grade rating from Standard & Poor, with a credit rating of BBB-. In conjunction with this, bonds for SEK 10.6 billion were issued. The issue was conducted mainly in EUR and SEK, and, in connection with this, secured bank loans for a corresponding amount were repaid.
Heimstaden Bostad has now positioned itself to continue its journey of growth in 2019. We see ahead an expanded property portfolio in growth regions in the Scandinavian countries in which we operate. The pace of investment in our existing property portfolio continues to rise, focusing on sustainability and value- raising measures, an unchanged or lowered loan-to-value ratio, and an objective to achieve a credit rating of BBB within 18 months.
Social sustainability efforts are, and will remain, a natural part of our business. We will support our tenants, solve problems and challenges that emerge, break loneliness, and increase security and safety. We will act as a role model regarding the equal value of all people, regardless of ethnicity background, or social or sexual
orientation. We will make a difference and we work every day to promote a friendlier and more inclusive society.
Our ultimate goal, the core of our corporate culture, stands firm: we will make a difference by “brightening and simplifying life with well-considered housing”. It is our vision that drives, motivates and inspires us. We will achieve our goals through hard work, the right, socially committed employees who place the customer at the fore.We retain a strong local presence – a prerequisite if we are always to deliver top-notch service.
To ensure continued sustainable and profitable growth, and to meet the demands imposed on the organisation, we have recruited several key individuals to Heimstaden. Over the past year, we expanded our workforce with some 100 new employees. I would like to extend considerable gratitude to all who help build confidence in Heimstaden on a daily basis.
You are our most important asset bar none.Patrik Hall, CEO Heimstaden

The Group’s property portfolio is divided into different geographic administrative segments.
Our segments
SwedenThe Swedish economy continues to develop positively, with growing GDP and increased disposable income. Employment has increased in recent years and, in 2018, unemployment was a little above 6 percent. A large influx of people born abroad has offset rising employment.Population growth is driving demand for housing, particularly in the metropolitan areas, which are experiencing strong growth as a result of the global urbanization trend. Sweden has grown by about 270,000 inhabitants over the past two years and the population is now at 10.1 million.According to the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning, 67,000 homes need to be built per year until 2025, while the current forecast is for only 51,000 homes to be added during 2019. With housing construction not meeting demand, a continued housing shortage is created. The forecast by the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning shows declining construc-tion of tenant-owned apartments, while rental apartments continue to experience good demand. Reinforced investment support for construction is expected to facilitate the production of rental apart-ments in locations with high production prices. The pace of building in Malmö remained unchanged in 2018 compared with 2017. Gothenburg accounted for strong growth in 2018, while the building rate in Stockholm decreased by 35 percent, according to the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning.

DenmarkThe Danish economy has developed strongly over a number of years. Employment has risen by about 1.5 percent on average on an annual basis. In November 2018, unemployment was at 4.9 percent, which is below the EU average. In Denmark, there are 2.8 million privately owned homes and only 63,000 of these are located in Copenhagen, corresponding therefore to only approximately 2 percent of the market. In parts of Copenhagen housing prices have risen by as much as 70 percent since 2012. The main reason for this sharp increase in prices is urbanisation. As in large parts of the western world, Denmark is experiencing a strong trend of urbanisation, with smaller communities being depopulated. The population of Copenhagen is forecast to increase by 100,000 inhabitants over the next ten years. Århus is Denmark’s second-largest city and has a well-developed transport network. Besides being known as a very popular student city (with 60,000 students in 2018), it is also the home of one of Northern Europe’s largest industrial ports. Odense is Denmark’s third-largest city and, like Aarhus, is a popular student city (with 30,000 students in 2017). The municipality prides itself on offering more than 100,000 jobs, and a particularly distinctive area of growth here is robotics and automation.
NorwayThe Norwegian economy continues to develop well and has shown recovery following several years with lower oil prices, resulting in lower activity in the oil and gas sector. Over the past year, growth has mainly been driven by rising oil prices, strong private consumption and higher exports as a result of the recovery in the world economy. Per capita GDP is among the highest in Europe. Employment is favourable and unemployment was a low 4 percent at the end of 2018. The urbanisation trend is evident also in Norway and, in the capital, Oslo, the population is increasing significantly faster than in the country as a whole. The City of Oslo is the hub in a densely-populated and fast-growing region, consisting of 46 municipalities with a total of 1.6 million inhabitants and a comprehensive and varied offering in terms of education, jobs, culture and transport. About 80 percent of Norwegians live in homes they own themselves, and the housing market is relatively unregulated. The limited supply of residential rental properties means that there are only a few private players, in addition to Heimstaden, who own large stocks of rental properties.

Rental income
Rental income for the period amounted to SEK 3,231 million (1,620), growing strongly compared with the preceding period. The growth is primarily a result of completed property transactions and attributable in particular to transactions involving properties acquired in Norway and Denmark that were taken possession of in October 2017 and April 2018. For the housing stocks, the average rental income was SEK 1,377 per square metre of time-weighted area (1,142). The increase was driven primarily by the rent level per square metre generally being higher in Denmark and Norway.
The letting ratio for housing remained at a high and stable level of 97.4 percent (98.6) for the period. The lower level can partly be explained by vacated apartments that are to be renovated to a higher standard to then generate higher income and valuation. Over the period, the vacated apartments accounted for 1.1 percent of the total, corresponding to a real letting ratio of 98.5 percent (real vacancy rate of 1.5 percent).
Property costs
Total property costs amounted to SEK 1,480 million (816). The increase is mainly due to increased property volumes.
Net operating income
Net operating income amounted to SEK 1,751 million (805) for the period, corresponding to a surplus ratio of 54.2 percent (49.7). The higher surplus ratio is primarily attributable to the acquisitions in Denmark and Norway, but also to operational optimisation in Sweden.
Central administration
Central administration costs consist amounted to SEK 140 million (111) and have risen due to the increased volume of properties.

Net financial items
Financial income during the period amounted to SEK 26 million (4) and financial expenses were SEK 698 million (367). The increased negative net financial items are mainly attributable to a larger loan portfolio as a consequence of a larger property portfolio. The average interest rate on the balance sheet date for total borrowing, derivatives and fees for unutilised credits amounted to 1.82 percent (1.73), driven in part by a rising trend in underlying base rates. In the fourth quarter, the company issued bonds at a lower interest cost than the loans that were repaid. This partly offsets the trend in basic interest rates. Interest rates on about 40 percent (70) of the loan portfolio will change within one year. All other things being equal, a change in the base rate (Stibor, Cibor, Nibor) by 1 percent, at any given time, would, adjusted for the interest rate hedges secured, increase Heimstaden’s interest cost, by approximately SEK 152 million (136) annually in the event of an increase, and decrease it by approximately SEK 24 million (35) in the event of a decline. The difference in sensitivity is explained by interest rate hedging and by several credit agreements containing interest rate floor clauses restricting interest rate changes on the downside, at the same time as the cost of purchased interest rate derivatives continues to increase when the base rate falls below zero.
Other financial income
Other financial income in the Group and in the Parent Company amounted to SEK 203 million (0), of which exchange rate differences
amounted to SEK 203 million. Exchange rate differences relating to balance sheet items in foreign subsidiaries are reported under Other comprehensive income, in accordance with IFRS. The amount reported under Other financial income and costs relates mainly to the translation of interest-bearing liabilities in NOK that have, in legal terms, been borrowed by a group company in Sweden. This finances investments in Norway where the asset is recognised in a Norwegian subsidiary. This means that the exchange rate difference regarding the above liability is reported under Other financial income and costs, while the exchange rate differences for the financed foreign assets are reported under Other comprehensive income.
Profit from property management
Profit from property management was SEK 1,142 million (344). The increase over the period is attributable primarily to the increased volume in the property portfolio.
Changes in the value of financial instruments
In accordance with the established financial policy and interest rate hedging strategy, Heimstaden uses interest rate derivatives to manage the Group’s interest rate risk. The change in the value of derivatives during the period amounted to SEK 11 million (4), of which un realised amounted to SEK 11 million. At the end of the period, the market value of the current derivative portfolio amounted to SEK 18 million (negative 31). The nominal volumes of interest rate swaps amounted to SEK 21,182 million (8,528).

Change in value of investment properties
As of 31 December 2018, the entire property portfolio has under-gone an external valuation. Combined, the unrealised change in the value of the properties amounted to SEK 2,711 million (1,795). All of Heimstaden’s three geographical segments developed positively over the year, with value increases of 3-5 percent. The Swedish stocks showed an unrealised change in value of SEK 1,557 million (+4.5 percent), the Danish stocks a change of SEK 609 million (+3.0 percent) and the Norwegian stocks a change of SEK 545 million (+3.6 percent). The value changes are primarily explained by a lower direct return requirement and improved net operating income in the existing stocks. The direct return requirement in the valuation averaged 3.71 percent, which compares with 3.86 percent at the end of 2017. During the period, properties valued at SEK 13 million were sold. After currency adjustment, the total change in value of properties amounted to SEK 2,562 million (1,776) in the Income Statement.
Tax
In addition to the current tax of SEK 135 million (35), the Group also reports deferred tax of SEK 557 million (511). The deferred tax consists primarily of temporary differences between carrying amounts and the consolidated cost of investment properties and financial instruments.

Interest-bearing liabilities
At the end of the period, Heimstaden had interest-bearing liabilities amounting to SEK 41,593 million (24,828). Of the SEK 41,593 million in interest-bearing liabilities, 65 percent are covered by property mortgages, giving a loan-to-value ratio for secured loans of 35 percent.. With deductions for cash and cash equivalents, net debt increased by SEK 15,214 million over the period to SEK 39,279 million (24,065). Over the same period, the Group’s borrowing, including currency effects, had increased by SEK 16,765 million, relating primarily to acquisitions of properties in Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
Of interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 10,643 million (0) refers to bond-based financing, SEK 14,797 million (6,905) to mortgage bond-based financing, and SEK 16,153 million (17,924) to traditional bank loans, of which 76 percent are secured. Confirmed but unutilised credit facilities from banks amounted to SEK 7,043 million (0.3) on the balance sheet date.
The average period for which capital is tied up in Heimstaden’s interest-bearing liabilities amounted 8.1 years (7.3). The largest proportion of loan occurring in an individual year amounts to 28 percent (33), maturing in 2020 (2019). At the same time, the average interest period of fixed interest, including the effect of derivatives, amounted to 2.58 years (1.35).
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is calculated, at a nominal tax rate of 20.6 percent in Sweden, 22 percent in Denmark and 23 percent in Norway, on differences between the carrying amount and the consolidated cost of assets and liabilities. As a result of a changed tax rate in Sweden, from 22 percent to 20.6 percent, the opening balance has also been recalculated and adjusted in the Income Statement. The effect on profit amounted to SEK 59 million. At 31 December 2018, deferred tax, which is the net of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, amounted to SEK 1,356 million (1,025) and was, for the most part, attributable to investment properties. The remaining tax deficit in the Group amounts to SEK 1,097 million (3).
Equity
Equity amounted to SEK 31,925 million (18,065), giving an equity/assets ratio of 42 percent (40). The change for the period is attribu-table to profit and dividends. During the period SEK 138 million (550) has been paid in dividends preference shares. Over the past year, Heimstaden Bostad AB has implemented several new share issues, four of these occurring in the period concerned and totalling SEK 11,414 million. Heimstaden is exposed to currency risk associated with the Danish and Norwegian operations, as well as to risk associated with the EUR with regard to financing. The risk associated with bonds denominated in EUR has been hedged against SEK through swaps. The currency risk associated with the foreign operations is limited to net capital in each currency. The risk can also have a direct effect on profit thereby affecting equity.

Operating activities
Cash flow from operating activities, before changes in working capital, increased to SEK 867 million (326). The improvement is primarily a consequence of changed and increased property holdings. After a reduction in working capital of SEK 471 million (increase 7), cash flow from operating activities was SEK 396 million (333). The increased working capital is largely an effect of an increased balance sheet due to the expansion in Norway and Denmark.
Investing activities
Cash flow from investing activities was negative in the amount of SEK 15,741 million (12,705). Most of the flow consists primarily of corporate transactions, property transactions and property investments, of which most are attributable to acquisitions in Oslo, Copenhagen, and Malmö.
Financing activities
Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 16,879 million (12,863) and is explained by a change in interest-bearing liabilities and new share issues as a result of an extended property portfolio.
Cash flow
Cash flow for the period amounted to SEK 1,535 million (491) and cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 2,313 million (763) at the end of the period.

Accounting principles
Heimstaden Bostad complies with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the EU and its interpretations of these (IFRIC). This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The same accounting and valuation principles and calculation methods have been applied as in the most recent annual report, see pages 18-21 of Heimstaden Bostad’s 2017 Annual Report.
IFRS 9 Financial instruments addresses reporting of financial instruments. The largest item managed under IFRS 9 is derivatives, which continue to be reported at fair value through the Income Statement. In other regards, the company does not hold any advanced financial instruments and the company’s analysis shows that the new principles will not have any significant impact on the company’s accounts. Heimstaden’s income consists predominantly of rental income for housing. The company’s income analysis in preparation for the transition to IFRS 15 has shown that only an insignificant part of the company’s income is attributable to services. Accordingly, the transition to IFRS 15 has no material impact on the company’s accounts.
During 2018, the Group has evaluated the effects of IFRS 16 and the new rules are not expected to have any material impact on the company. Heimstaden AB is a lessee for a few leasehold agreements and other minor leases. Heimstaden AB’s assessment is that the transition to IFRS 16 will also have no significant effect impact on the Group’s earnings and financial position and cash flow state-ment. The Group will apply IFRS 16 as of January 1 2019 and will therefore not apply the standard retroactively. The leasing debt as of 1 January 2019 amounts to SEK 88 million, where a equivalent access right are reported.
Other new and amended standards are not currently expected to affect Heimstaden’s accounts to any significant extent.The Parent Company applies the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.
Transactions with related parties
Heimstaden’s transactions with related parties are detailed in Note 26 in Heimstaden Bostad’s 2017 Annual Report.
Significant events after the end of the reporting period
No significant events have occurred after the end of the reporting period.
Risk management, estimation and assessments
The Board of Directors and company management work continuously to achieve the desired risk profile, which is governed by the adopted Financial Policy and established operational targets.
Heimstaden Bostad’s operations, financial position and profit can be affected by a number of risks and uncertainties. These are described on pages 9- 11 in the 2017 Annual Report. No significant changes have subsequently occurred affecting the assessment by the Board of Directors and company management.
To prepare the accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management must make assessments and assumptionsaffecting the assets and liabilities reported in the financial statements, as well as income and expense items and other disclosures. Actual outcomes may differ from these assessments.

In the adjacent table, Heimstaden presents its earning capacity on a twelve-month basis as per 31 December 2018. Earning capacity is not a forecast for the current year or for the next 12-month period and should only be regarded as a theoretical snapshot and is presented for illustrative purposes only. Current earning capacity does not include an assessment of future trends in rent levels, vacancy rates, property costs, interest rates, changes in value, acquisitions or sales of properties or other factors. Current earning capacity is based on the properties held as per 31 December 2018 and their financing. Accordingly, the current earning capacity illustrates Heimstaden’s annual earnings on that basis. Consequently, transactions where Heimstaden gains access after 31 December are not included in the calculation. Heimstaden’s Income Statement is also affected by the develop-ment in the value of the property portfolio and future property acquisitions and/or property sales. Changes in values of derivatives is another item affecting profit. None of the above has been taken into account in the current earning capacity, nor in the item Participations in profit of associated companies. Earning capacity is based on the contracted rental income, current property costs and administrative costs of the property portfolio. Costs for interest-bearing liabilities have been based on the Group’s average interest rate on the balance sheet date, including the effects of derivative instruments.
